"I Know How You Feel"

PAIL - Pregnancy & Infant Loss

Your hCG levels have dropped by half since your last beta test, and there was nothing on your ultrasound. I’m sorry but you’re no longer pregnant. Do you want to schedule a D&C now or call back?

Our Precious Baby "Olive"

We cried we wept, we sobbed, we prayed, we praised, we read scriptures, and tried as best as we could to distract from our situation. After 5 long days, we finally had answers... I was no longer carrying our Thorpling #2, our “Baby Olive”.
